COINOTAG News reports that, in a recent appearance on The Katie Miller Podcast, Elon Musk addressed the Department of Government Efficiency, known by the acronym DOGE. He asserted the initiative had achieved only a “little bit of success” in trimming taxpayers’ costs, highlighting limited fiscal upside. Musk added that, given the chance to reset, he would not return to the DOGE office, opting instead to devote his energy to building his own company and pursuing strategic product development. The remarks situate governance debates within the broader crypto innovation narrative.

Reflecting on the episode, Musk said, “Most of the time, I feel like I’m dreaming, and all of it seemed extremely unreal at the time.” Analysts suggest such candor could influence crypto market sentiment and discussions around meme assets, while underscoring how leadership narratives intersect with policy considerations and digital asset dynamics in today’s financial landscape.
